Default Bad Private messages?

Has anyone gotten a private message from a person who signs in as BENNYSA? It's in German and I can decipher a few words and they seem strange. I can't convert German. He has never posted here before. I am wondering if he's a scammer or not. I was going to forward it to Ryan, but don't see anywhere to do so. Any help?

There should be a report button near the top banner of the PM. That will get it to Ryan or one of the other moderators. Rod

I think I may have deleted it, fearing it was a scam. If it wasn't, then maybe he'll send another message. I am suspicious basically because he has not posted anything on the forum, but yet sent me a PM. I will keep an eye on my account here.

If you get another one, either post it or send it to me. I can speak German and should be able to translate it, if indeed it is in German and not some other language

Hey Barry,
Yup, at least 'suspecious' circumstances, eh !
However, I'm wondering IF you have advert anything for sale ?
I was contacted by a German speaking buyer at first time contact. His contacts were all written in German. He ended up buying a '36 coupe that I had advertised. Nice fellow !

No, I don't have anything to sell, nor am I looking for anything right now. I did sell an engine to a man in Germany a few years ago, but he was fluent in English. I did look later on the membership roster and there was not a BENNYSA listed. I guess he came and went. I'm chalking it up as a scammer. If I'm wrong, I have no idea why he'd want to contact me.

Just did a quick check and there is a Bennysa listed.

I received two private messages from this user, which they apparently deleted.

However, here is a copy of the message: (WARNING, DO NOT CLICK ON ANY HYPERLINK in the message!)
-----------------------------------------------------------
You have received a new private message at The Ford Barn from Bennysa, entitled "Legale Partydrogen scheppern genauso geil!!!".

To read the original version, respond to, or delete this message, you must log in here:
https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/private.php

This is the message that was sent:
***************
High Partyfeierleute, *[url=https://partychemicals.com/]* kürzlich bin ich auf den Onlineshop Partychemicals aufmerksam geworden. Ich kann euch sagen die Produkte sind echt voll der krasse Hammer!!! Funktionieren alle genauso geil wie die bekannten jedoch illegalen Substanzen MDMA, Koks, Hoffmann Pappen, Speed, Ampheta, Dope, Gras die Drogen die jeder in der Szene kennt. Ich weiß nicht wie es euch geht ich hatte schon mal echt unangenehmen Stress gehabt wegen illegalen BTM. Da ist dieser Onlineshop genau das was ich schon lange gesucht habe jedoch gar nicht wusste, das es legale Substanzen gibt die genauso wirken wie illegale Drogen. Voll abgefahren Leute!!! Hier mal als Info für alle die mit den Legal High Begriffen noch nicht vertraut sind: Räuchermischungen = klassisches Dope e Liquid Räuchermischung = der Knaller flüssige hochpotentes Dope im e Shisha Stick Research Powders = Koks, Speed, Ampheta Research Pellets = MDMA, XTC Research Chemicals = große Auswahl an legalen Partydrogen mit vielen Infos & Forenlinks Vorteile habe ich mal zusammengefasst: * Kein Behördenstress, Verhaftung, Verurteilung, Knast weil Substanzen 100% LEGAL * Drogentests negativ damit auch keine Pappe weg * Kein Risiko mehr durch Überwachung deines Dealers selbst im Visier zu geraten * 99.98% Reinheitsgrad in pharmazeutischer Qualität * Neutraler, anonymer Versand + Verpackung * Versand durch FedEx, UPS, TNT, DHL * SSL verschlüsselter Shop d.h. alle Kundendaten sind hochgradig verschlüsselt (Serpent-Twofish-AES 3-fachverschachtelter 256-bit key) auf Offshore Servern außerhalb des Zugriffs von EU Behörden sicher aufgehoben * Neutraler Drittanbieter erscheint auf deine Kreditkartenabrechnung * Zahlungen per Kreditkarten, Banküberweisung oder Bitcoins über Exchanger * Super Kundenservice antwortet schnell auf alle Fragen Was mich ebenfalls überzeugt ist die große Auswahl an LEGALEN Party Ersatzsubstanzen mit vielen Infos (Dosierung, Effekte, Dauer...) zu jeder Substanz. Damit ist man genau informiert was wirklich drin ist! Klasse finde ich auch das bei allen Substanzen Links zu bekannten Drogenforen wie Eve&Rave, Erowid, Bluelight, Drugwiki hinterlegt sind. So viele Infos habe ich bisher bei noch keinen anderen Shop gesehen! In Scam Warnings wird über Abzockerseiten gewarnt wo man auf keinen Fall bestellen sollte. In Legalität wird sehr informativ über die Gesetzeslage in Deutschland und der Europäischen Union mit aktuellen Urteilen des EuGH informiert. In dem Sinne wünsche ich euch allen fröhliches feiern und geile Partys! Bleibt sicher, sauber drauf & geschützt auf der legalen Seite des Gesetzes!!! Der Preis, Stress und Probleme mit illegalen Drogen ist es einfach nicht wert zu riskieren!!!

It translates to drugs and partying. I am not sure if it is promoting or against it. It is a weird message. Either his account was hijacked or he's a scammer. This should be sent to Ryan so he can take the appropriate action.

Here is your translation.

High party party people, * [url = https://partychemicals.com/] * recently, I am the online store Partychemicals become aware. I can tell you that the products are real full of blatant hammer! All work just as horny as the popular but illegal substances MDMA, coke, Hoffmann boards, speed, Ampheta, dope, grass that which everyone is familiar with drugs at the scene. I don't know how you I had been already times really unpleasant stress due to illegal BTM. There is this online shop exactly what I was looking for a long time but didn't know that legal substances there that Act just like illegal drugs. Fully awesome people! Here as Info for all those with the legal high terms are not familiar: Smoking blends classic dope e = liquid incense = the blast liquid highly potent dope in the e-hookah stick research powders = Coke, speed, Ampheta research MDMA pellets, research chemicals range of legal party drugs with loads of info = XTC & I summarized times Forum links benefits: * because no authority stress, arrest, conviction, jail substances 100% LEGAL * drug tests negative, hence no cardboard away * no risk more by monitoring your dealer to get himself in the sights * 99.98% purity pharmaceutical grade * neutral, anonymous shipping + packaging * shipping through FedEx, UPS, TNT, DHL * SSL encrypted shop i.e. all customer data (Serpent-Twofish-AES 3-compartment verschachtelter 256-bit key) are highly encrypted offshore servers outside of EU authorities safely lifted * neutral third party will appear on your credit card billing * payments via credit card, bank transfer or Bitcoins about exchanger * Super customer service responds quickly to all questions what is also convinced me the variety of legal party replacement substanzen with lots of information (effects, dosage, duration...) to each substance. So one is informed what is really in there! Class I find also that all substances links to known drug forums such as Eve & rave, Erowid, BlueLight, Drugwiki are deposited. I've seen so much information so far still no other shop! Scam warnings warn about the gambler pages where you should order in any case. Legality is informed very informative about the legal situation in Germany and the European Union with the latest judgments of the European Court of Justice. In the sense, I wish you all Merry, celebrate and hot parties! Stay safe, clean it & protected on the legal side of the law! It's just not worth risking the price, stress, and problems with illegal drugs!

No matter what, it has nothing to do with Flatheads obviously, so this person is spreading spam! I only posted about it originally, to see if any others had gotten it. Now it should be in Ryan's hands to deal with it.
